Is there an example skeleton for Mixamo?

I commissioned a character from an artist, and I'm having trouble retargeting the joints to satisfy Mixamo, specifically around the root/hip joints. Is there an example someplace of the Mixamo's "ideal" minimum skeletal structure? I'd like to compare to what I have so I know what to ask my artist for. Thanks!

    Dear Cbackas,

    The "ideal" Mixamo skeleton is the one we use in our default characters.
    Some of them have facial features (e.g. Mia, Justin) and some others don't (e.g. Soldier) but they all share a similar skeleton structure and number of bones. The naming convention is also compliant with our retargeting system of course and with HIK/Motionbuilder. Thus you can download one of the (free) default characters and use the skeleton to rig your character.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks.
    Stefano
